Supplementation.... Well now, that is a different subject. I'm sure INJECTING testosterone into someone isn't the only substance than can be injected into someone inducing artificially high levels of a substance that will produce aberrant behavior. In fact, we do this all the time with psychiatric drugs which some have postulated is the sole cause of all the "mass shooters" we've seen. Funny how no one wants to talk about that!
But the blanket statements that directly imply that males are toxic because they naturally have more testosterone than females is total bullshit.
I'd agree that testosterone is linked to greater aggression, but I believe (and I suspect Phil's point was also) that the man's choices are his own responsibility, and not to be blamed on "hormones". A good man will control his impulses, and master his aggression to make it serve him, instead of the other way around.
The same could be said of women - and should be said! I have seen some truly vicious people who are not males. BTW, that means they are females, in case there is any confusion.
WADR, testosterone supplementation is associated with aggressive behavior (and some say sociopathy too; IDK about that).
Sorry that I don’t have a source, but easy to research.

As I said, no one wants to talk about THAT! Well there is one.
